PHA Polyhydroxy
A new family of chemical exfoliators has taken skincare by storm; but what are PHAs—polyhydroxy acids—and why include them in our beauty rituals?
About PHA Polyhydroxy Acids
PHAs are second-generation skincare acids that help to resurface and retexturise skin for a softer, plumper appearance and reduced looking fine lines. Locking in moisture, they build natural defences and protect against external aggressors while their large molecular weight is slow-penetrating and gentler on sensitive skin.
